Reading and journaling discussion with Robin Whitley

Robin Whitley will be at City Lights Bookstore in Sylva at 7 p.m. on Jan. 21 to read from her book, In a Southern Closet.

She will also discuss the importance of journaling as a means of thinking about a person’s life and being able to tell that story. In a Southern Closet is a collection of poetry, reflections and essays about the challenges a lesbian Christian faces in living an open life while seeking to live a life of faith.
